I’ve just had a phonecall on my mobile.
Welsh Bloke: Hi there! I’m just ringing you to let you know your T-mobile contract is up for renewal and we can offer you a brand new phone and a massive reduction on your bill!
My contract is indeed up for renewal. So I naturally just assumed it was T-mobile calling me.
Me: Erm, OK. It’s unlikely you’ll be able to reduce my bill…
Welsh Bloke: Lets see we–
Me: Hang on, are you from T-mobile
Welshy: Well, no. We’re a company called Mobiles For You and we can offer–
Me: Right, well, I’m sorry but I’m not interested.
Welshy: I’m not interesting?
Me: No, I’m not interested in whatever it is you’re going to offer.
Welshy: Right sir, I’ll just put you through to our “Not Interested” department.
Me: What? You have a–
Welshy: Please hold a second…
So I hung up. Their number was 01792 828102 if anyone fancies ringing them and asking for their Not Interested department. I would, but, well, I’m not actually interested.
Just gave them a call. Didn’t get a welsh chap though.
Asked for the not interested dept, and he got confused. Told me I had the wrong number. Didn’t even attempt to put me through.
It would appear I’m not the only one:

Do they also have a “go screw yourself” dept? 🙂
Thanks for hte heads-up deKay (second result when you Google the number!), my sister-in-law keeps getting calls from them (she doesn’t answer) so I’ve just told her to ignore them. Interestingly enough she’s on T-Mobile too!

I’ve been getting SO many calls from 01254 277054, but I’ve never answered.
As I live in north Scotland I was a bit surprised when I realised it was a Blackburn area code.
I’m with 3 mobile, and yes my contract is soon to expire.
How did they get my number??
Yeah I’ve been getting calls from 01254 277054 with an Englishy bloke on the phone. As you say it’s Blackburn.
EnglishyBloke: Hi there! I’m just ringing you to let you know your T-mobile contract is up for renewal and we can offer you a brand new phone and a massive reduction on your bill!
Me: Not interested.
They are either too stupid or mean to have an exchange which disguises their number. When I see the number it’s the red button for them every time.
